Pros

Some of the people are nice.

Cons

It's a nightmare to work here. The raises are very small, they cram to much work into an 8 hour day, the higher ups treat you badly and the office is old and dirty!

Pros

Each service center is basically run by a store manager and overseen by the distric manager, so there are good managers and then there not so-good managers. But, your daily activities remains the same. Working in a local service center provided great flexibility for work and family. Great support from corporate employees and other service locations. Overall, I found that the all of the employess that I worked with to be helpful, hard-working and plepleasant.

Cons

Everthing I said above changed with the aquisition of Agway. I found the people to be arrogant, lazy and overpaid. And, Suburban executive management let them ruin business by keeping their distric and service managers run the business.
